25/1 with bookmakers, and they’ll have plenty of juice in that. True price probably 100/1 relegation. 1% chance of happening. We’re safe.

Exactly, and that’s not even taking account of Brum, Stoke, QPR, Plymouth who are also all below us and worse GD bar Plymouth. We’re safe and we can get back to seething about shambolic transfer windows and how little we’ll invest in the summer!

Sickeningly, I actually think I’m going to have to cheer on bloody Russell Martin. As it’ll be so so so sweet to see both Leicester AND Leeds somehow miss out on automatic promotion!

Last minute Bristol City goal gives us a lovely cushion. If we’d lost we’d have been sweating 90 minutes into the 3pms. Results weren’t looking too good. We’re safe now anyway, maybe not mathematically, but it’s a huge price for 5 of the 6 teams to all get to 50 points whilst we lose 3. True price probably bigger than 100/1 if I was sober enough to work it out!

Yeah fair play. Nicely summed up there. 5-0 drubbings obviously put the downers on for everyone, but we also won one 5-1 in there and just beat top of the league. I’m just pleased to see some fight and ‘arte et labore’ !!

Fair fucks to Eustace and the players, for everything they were to be blamed for mid-week they should be praised for today. Fantastic desire and effort, and ended up with the two best chances in the match. Szmodics added a few mill more onto his value. He came in with instructions to keep us up, and he’s done just that. (Added sweetener that it’s Leeds falling apart - hopefully Ipswich do the business today) edit: Bamford should have had two yellows for two dives. Pathetic excuse of a footballer, too busy falling on the floor to stick in the net. No wonder his own fans despise him. Wouldn’t even be pens in non-contact sports

Disappointing to see Hyam start, what sort of message does that deliver, play as shit as you like lads and you’ll keep your place. I’d be amazed if it wasn’t the worst performance from any player, and any team in the Championship all season. Then again, he left him on all match to see an even worse 2nd half. Back to a back 3 by the looks of it, which is still yet to work under Eustace. Leeds by 3. Rovers 1 shot off target.

In recent years I’d have followed that result closely but I barely registered it tonight, the interest is dwindling. We just need to beat Wednesday, but little hope our soft boys will do that

For all those in disgust that we're giving Wednesday 7k and not just shoving them in the DE Upper, I beg you don't go onto Rovers facebook.....but i'll put a taste below to help you pull your hair out: "Another £175k plus food and drink, should spur us on more to put the ball in the net" "Our best performance in years was in front of 7k geordies" "How can we expect players to believe we are equal or better than them, if we don't" "Poor decision from home supporters not to go more like" "If we filled our own seats it wouldn't be a problem" my favourite....."Where's your faith in the team? players often play better to larger crowds" I honestly sometimes think we deserve our current mess, some of our lot only have air between their ears.

Yeah I guess from my original post I also wanted to highlight how bad the end was under JDT….yet it’s looking as bad or worse under this fella. If we needed a change then, there’s an argument to say we need a change now away from Eustace.

When we lose to Leeds it’ll be 10 points from 13 league games under Eustace and 1 win. JDTs final 13 league games….11 points. Worth reminding all those with blinkers on raving about how we’ve improved the last few weeks and constantly quoting X points in X games. Has a manager ever had the opposite of ‘new manager bounce’ to this extreme

Norwich may have nothing to play for mind you (we’ve been there before!) Huddersfield also have Ipswich away last up. Ideal scenario is Leicester already winning the league and Leeds/Ipswich still battling for 2nd

I fear for this squad if we do stay up. £0 will be reinvested we all know that (well all of us except one individual). Szmodics, Tronstad, JRC from the starting 11 are probably the only 3 of true quality to start if we had any ambition moving forward. We need a new GK, whole new back line, 2 wingers and a striker on a £0 budget.

The players will be nice and comfy on Waggotts state of the art coach coming home at least.

Brum losing is massive. They have 4 points from their last 10 matches, losing 8 of them, giving us a run for our money. Our saving grace is that there is still a chunk of teams between us and the relegation places. Hopefully Bristol City can do similar on Saturday against Huddersfield! Heads should roll at Rovers tonight, I can’t wait for this season to end now and reassess if I give up in the summer

Not good for goal difference with Leeds away up next!!

Cardiff thank god!!

Not sure it’s balls, strikes me more a bloke who hasn’t got a clue and just had a gamble on changes. If it’s was ‘balls’ he’d have taken off Hyam for starters, closely followed by Gallagher and Brittain

Brittain is literally just passing the ball to red shirts consistently. Between himself and Gallagher I’m not sure they’ve completed a pass to a Rovers player

Not sure who Miller meant, but my opinion would be Brittain. Woeful at the back and giving the ball away every single time going forward

If ever a moment summed up how Gallagher isn’t a number 9 / goalscorer it was that.

Leaving on Hyam and taking off Wharton 😂😂😂 what a clown

1 win and 10 points from 11 league games. Relegation form/quality any way you spin it. Edit: about to be 12 league games. Would be 38 points across a season, between Rotherham and Wednesday

100%. I’d get Carter on now to give him some minutes with a view of Carter and Wharton together for the rest of the season

We only need maximum 3 more for safety in my opinion….just hard to envisage where it comes from when watching performances like this!!
